Question: Jump/Leap Distance (My Momentary Lapse)

Unread post by ApocalypseZero »

I can't seem to find the text on Leap/Jump Distance. I know it's in the books, but I just can't seem to find it. I have R: UE, GMG, HU2, and PFRPG2e handy. Anyone give me a quick help?

somone looked this up in another post related to jumping distance. I believe the rules were found in After the Bomb. Otherwise, they are probably in the Rules FAQ.
Be at peace, my people. All shall be looked up.

I think it's in the attribute chapter in RUE (under Spd or PS?). I'm not really sure, as I don't have the books in front of me :oops:

Edit: got from older posts.

FAQAnswer: For humans, figure that normal untrained characters can leap 4' high and 5' long. Characters with either the acrobatics or gymnastics skills increase their distance by 2' per level of experience (Note: This is 2' for either skill; having both skills will NOT increase the distance beyond the 2'). Modifying a character's leaping distance for physical attributes (i.e. speed, strength, and/or prowess) is an option for the individual GM. If so applied, characters with Superhuman/Supernatural Strength would leap twice the normal distance (i.e. 8' high and 10' long plus 4' per level of experience).


Edit 2: It seems that Jucier, crazies and other OCC have specific leaping/jumping distances listed.

Each question should be give the canon answer 1st, then you can proclaim your house rules.
